We’ve just gotten our best indication yet that the launch of Samsung’s Galaxy S5 Prime is imminent. @evleaks, one of the most reliable gadget leakers around who typically gets intel on devices that are fairly close to being released, wrote on Thursday that the Galaxy S5 Prime will soon launch in Korea and will come in five different color options: “Black, white, gold, blue, and sweet pink.” The Galaxy S5 Prime is supposedly going to be an even higher-end version of its popular Galaxy S5 smartphone that will use a metal case instead of Samsung’s trademark plastic shell. Samsung typically releases several different variations of its flagship devices — it released at least 12 different versions of the Galaxy S4, for instance — but this will be the first time it’s ever released a device that’s supposed to be a fancier version of its flagship brand.
